Print of Mel's artwork

Hi everyone.

Donna Heffler had some prints made of the artwork Mel  brought  to our last  critique. Details are as follows:

There are three sizes all laser printed on 110# card stock, and ten of each size have been printed. Donna also downloaded the specs to a Flash drive so more prints can be made with out another set up charge.

Pricing:

Sm card $3.00

LG card $6.00

Full size print $10.00

If you would like to purchase one or more prints or cards  members can email Donna Heffler at  dmheffler@gmail.com . If ordered by Saturday Donna can have  the prints on Tuesday night. I  realize those who were not  at our last critique have not seen the artwork. Maybe if we ask nicely Donna can send an image via email.

Have a great day - Tom
